MCQ
Find the angle between two vectors $\vec A = 2\hat i + \hat j - \hat k$ and $\vec B = \hat i - \hat k$ ....... $^o$
  • A
    $40$
  • $30$
  • C
    $20$
  • D
    $10$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$30$
b
$\cos \,\theta  = \frac{{\vec A.\vec B}}{{AB}} = \frac{{2 + 1}}{{\sqrt 6  + \sqrt 2 }} = \frac{3}{{\sqrt 6 \sqrt 2 }} = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{2}$

$\therefore$  $\theta = 30^o$
